you would need to go down this route if you go for bike carbs any way

you got me thinking so i read back trough some of my uni books and older car pumps i.e. pre 75 era used a spring to keep the arm one the cam and a linkage that had lost movement (elongated hole) so the diaphram could remain in positon under pressure until the cam came back around.

later on a return line was used and fuel pumps changed
